Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Crisis of Emancipation in America, Being a Review of the History of Emancipation At the moment that the fall of Richmond and the surrender of Lee had apparently sealed the final doom of slavery in the United States, the assassination of President Lincoln has struck down the leader, on whose guidance the success of the great revolution in the negro´s condition seemed so much to depend. While the cry of indignant grief is rising from all hearts in England at the loss inflicted upon America and the world by this cowardly deed, it may be well to consider whether out country has not a duty to discharge at this juncture to the nation of whom Mr. Lincoln was the chosen chief, and to the race of whose exodus out of bondage he was taking the lead. For not only was Britain herself once guilty of the crime of slavery, but it was she who introduced it into America against the wishes of her colonies, and left it as an heirloom to them when they ceased to form a portion of her Empire.
